For all practical purposes, this is a bank!Its more than full service! We went inside and I didn't see any of the long lines that I'd been hearing about. My daughter was waited on rather promptly. We were treated in a most courteous manner! I really don't understand why this is called a credit union and not bank. Most credit unions that I've been affiliated with over the years require a company sponsorship to open an account or for any other kind of services. I don't believe it's that way here. I was mostly just window shopping for another place to put some money. From my one time visit here I don't have any reservations about this financial institution!

I stop at least weekly! I do highly recommend this bank!

Once again I made the short journey to the Gaffney S.C. main branch of First Piedmont Federal S &L…read morebank. I just wanted to put some money in my daughters checking account since she would be out of town for the weekend. I wanted her to be able to handle any unforeseen financial situations. As instructed the last time that I did this I didn't deposit cash directly into her account! I made a transfer from my account into hers. I asked the teller if it wouldn't be more simple to just let me deposit the 100.00 cash from my wallet! I would be glad to face the Federal scrutiny about money laundering over this little bit since transferring money from one account to another is more time consuming! The teller then told me that it's always been against their banks policy to deposit cash into someone else's account! I replied: that's a shocker to me as I've been putting money in my daughters bank account since she was old enough to drive a car! No reply : so I will comply!

I've seen this bank innumerable times! Seldom have I seen more than one customer and that was the case today! Secondly, with our Walmart being the home of rising prices; they aren't thinking about a bank after shopping! They are wondering how they can stretch their expensive groceries and make them last a week! And thirdly; the number of comments from the few people who use this bank are for the most part negative! In my world, few visible customers anywhere is the equivalent of bad business practices and should be avoided! I'm going to take my own advice and stay away from this bank!

This is just a typical bank . There's nothing extraordinary about this one in particular. The one…read morecaveat that I can think of is that they have always provided free checking to their customers! Always! Perhaps this is the reason that they are the premier banking institution in our small town. In the fifty some odd years that I've been a customer I've seen more than several banks fold up and leave town! This has not only remained the by far largest bank in GaffneyS.C. but has actually grown with two other locations inside our city limits. There are two branches in Spartanburg S.C. and one in Boiling Springs,S.C. also. I am convinced that free checking is the main reason for their success! I have been the beneficiary of that policy for many years now. It's just a mystery to me where the money from all of those savings went to! LOL! I do of course recommend this bank!
